Good to know, Carmen. Thx. Sometimes you think you’re just swimming in an empty pool!
Re Hamilton: I never have won that Lottery either! I live 3 blocks from the theatre here in NYC and finally saw it in Chicago courtesy of a friend who lives there and got me a ticket the day they went on sale there!
I seem to have more luck with Lotteries on Today Tix than those other Digital Lotteries like Hamilton, Hansen and now, My Fair Lady.

Anyone ever win that Digital Lottery?! I’ve been trying for I don’t know how long and never have won. From reports here, looks like Standing Room is the way to go. I’ve never seen it.
CHILDREN OF A LESSER GOD Sets May 27 Closing Date May 9

Back from today's matinee. Thought it was wonderful. Joshua Jackson was robbed of a Tony Nomination. Haven't felt this way since, oh yeah, just last year when Gideon Glick didn't make the cut for Significant Other. God, Mr. Jackson's role is unbelievable. The guy is never off the stage and has to interpret another actor's role as well as his own. And he does so effortlessly and beautifully. Ms. Ridloff was amazing as well. Robbed of the Revival Play nomination as well. The small audience was ver

Good to see your posts Jordan and Concierge. I loved the original production but I, like others I guess, read the tepid reviews and posts here and thought, why bother- I’ll keep my memories. Well, as luck would have it, a friend is taking me to see it tomorrow. And I’m glad to read your praise. I wasn’t particularly looking forward but now I feel some more hope, so thx again for posting!
If you could revive any Broadway flop? May 8
2018, 11:16:59 PM
Amen to a big budget production of Pacific Overtures. I wish Broadway would do an old fashion thriller again like they used to. I guess Misery counted but that wasn’t a flop show that was revived. I wish they would bring back Don’t Call Back (check out my Profile pic to the left!). This thriller starred the late Arlene Francis about some burglars breaking into an actress’s ritzy apartment. Night Watch starred the great late Joan Hackett. Lasted about 3 months. Great set. Great thriller. We Inter
I don't know but I so wish Carole King would join the show! I know she has to be younger in the beginning of the show but a lot of wigs and costumes would help, and who would care? It would go through the roof, I think.
Just tried on my phone and connected. Guess it's back now.
HELLO, DOLLY! Sets August 25 Closing Date; Bette Midler to Return July 17 May 6
2018, 08:03:08 PM
That sounds like the first go round 1959. I would keep hearing about the show being sold out and crazy Premium prices only and then a poster here would outline regular price seats available or I would check Telecharge and see regular price seats available. So I guess it’s best to keep checking!
HELLO, DOLLY! Sets August 25 Closing Date; Bette Midler to Return July 17 May 6
2018, 01:25:06 AM
Hope this is an OK place to put this- it’s about a Bette clip so I think so. Just came upon a clip on YouTube from a Bette performance of the entire Call On Dolly/I Put My Hand In number. Not sure when in the run it was taken. In the middle of I Put My Hand In number a drop falls that looks like we’re in a train station to Yonkers and two lamplights come up from the stage floor. I’ve seen the show several times and unless old age is really taking over, I don’t remember those lamps coming up
Santino leaving Dolly? May 5
2018, 02:38:00 PM
Just read your post, DAME. I thought it was just me. I liked him OK, but this was my first exposure to Mr. Fontana and I had heard he was wonderful in other shows so I was looking forward to seeing him. His voice is fine but I did find him lacking. To the point that I didn’t understand why the producers didn’t just leave the understudy on until Gavin Creel returned. There must have been a reason. I thought his scene before It Only Takes a Moment went on too long, as if he was doing the Dolly eat
THE BOYS IN THE BAND (2018) Previews May 4
2018, 02:35:40 PM
Thx, KingofthePigPeople. I have tix for the last week of the run and I was dying because so far the comments have been through the roof here and I thought how can I wait till August. Yours brings it down a notch. Now I’ll just relax and wait!
Official Bernadette Peters in Hello, Dolly! performances thread May 4
2018, 09:56:05 AM
I don’t remember if I already posted this thought but it came to me again this morning-shows you how obsessed I am about this show. I loved Bernadette in the show but wasn’t all that taken with Victor Garber. He was fine, he didn’t hurt the show but the humor and sweetness of David Hyde Pierce was gone. What would seem the littlest of “business” was a big hole for me: in the last scene Horace has hired a man to paint the upstairs room-a man who has just started his business and needs customers t
I guess I should just be quiet or someone here will tell me to but, then again, this might be helpful info for others: I’ve been wanting to see the last August 25th 8pm performance of Hello, Dolly like many of you here. And, of course, it sold out quickly when tix went on sale April 28th. I’ve been checking Telecharge daily with no luck. This morning around 8:30, I did my usual check on Telecharge and 1 Balcony seat location came up. I nearly fell out of bed running for my credit
Chazz Palminteri to Join the Cast of A BRONX TALE on Broadway May 4
2018, 09:02:18 AM
Haven’t seen it but like others have said here, he did the write the thing and the whole situation of letting the regular cast actor out weekdays to make a movie seems a win-win situation all around. It’s not real stunt casting like Stormy Daniels is Roxie Hart for 6 weeks only in Chicago. But then again, that would probably put that show back into the 100% gross potential.
Condola Rashad May 3
2018, 02:25:28 PM
My partner saw it last night. He was underwhelmed. While he thought Miss Rashad was passionate in her portrayal, he said her “S’s” were missing and it sounded lispy. And he doesn’t remember that in DH2, so many it was a choice? He said Walter Bobbie had a similar speech pattern.
Rant about the 2018 TONY nominations here May 1
2018, 06:36:53 PM
Not so adamant as AfterEight, but I did sit there after The Band's Visit and thought it's...fine, just fine. I was almost embarrassed to tell anyone I wasn't wild about it because I know how many love this show. I want to see the movie now. Maybe there is a clue there to its so fond of feelings.

Now this is what Is REALLY cool about this chat board. Those last two posts were great. Someone in need of help and gets it from a fellow chatter and it all works out! Great.
